McSorley's
15 East 7th St. (3rd Ave.), Manhattan
As told to 30toMidnight by Tony G...
When it comes to public nudity, the debate of AA versus AI is rendered moot. For there is nothing Appropriate about a man - a squat, hairy one that that - displaying his wedding tackle while members of the 30toMidnight extended family are out tossing back a few stiff ones. (Ahem.) Then again, we have grown to expect anything at McSorley’s.
The other night, my 37 year-old friend Nicole was in McSorley's for a
few beers. She called in this report: "You know how that place is on a Thursday: Packed. So we are at the bar and my back is to the door. I feel a tapping on my shoulder. I turn around to a
smiling naked guy standing there. He says to me, 'Do you have a
cigarette?'"
"Seriously?" I asked. "Naked, naked?"
"Yeah, seriously. So I say, 'I don't smoke' and he actually responds, 'Thanks anyway. I
am sorry to have disturbed you.' And he turns around and walks out."
"Then what'd you do?"
"I waited until I was sure that he gone, and then I went out for a smoke."
"Wow, you're cold."
"So, apparently, was he."
